- Good overall picture quality, especially considering the price.
- The resolution is only 720 p. You will notice a screen door effect if you sit close to the TV.
- Average input lag.
- It reflects a lot of light.

We buy and test dozens of TVs yearly, taking an objective, data-driven approach to deliver results you can trust. Our testing process is complex, with hundreds of individual tests that take over a week to complete. Most of our tests use specially designed test patterns that mimic real content, but we also use the same sources you have at home to ensure our results match the real-world experience. We use two main tools for our testing: a Colorimetry Research CR-100 colorimeter and a CR-250 spectroradiometer.
